Log Week 23-26 [03/01/2014 - 03/22/2014]:
An online class is set up to cover the basics of individual science experiments. Lab hours became mandatory and all payloads were asked to finish their block diagrams.
Things To Expect:
- A new Google poll has been posted (link).
- Online lecture every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from Dr. Bering.
- Expect a lecture on atmospheric science on Monday from Dr. Lefer.
- Meeting with Dr. Lefer on Friday.
- Planning to be done with PDR/CDR sometime later (No ETA on this).
- Hopefully, we will be able to host our site on NSM server as soon as we get an approval from the department.

Fifteenth USIP Round-table Meeting
Log Week 20 [02/16/2014]:
All the payloads were discussed and requirements for each once again examined. We are still seeking more collaboration amongst groups with similar to redundant data to fit that in narrow bandwidth.
We watched an educational movie about the balloon launch at the end of the meeting and will continue to do so for the lifetime of the project.

Fourteenth USIP Round-table Meeting
Log Week 19 [02/09/2014]:
A vote has been taken on groupme and the status meeting is now moved to every Sunday instead of Saturday.
We discussed about PDR and doing each PDR separately for each individual payload and then combine them in the end. But that turns out to be counter-productive or maybe what we decided in the meeting that only one person will be responsible for typing the whole thing with everyone's help.
We watched a movie about the balloon launch at the end of the meeting and will continue to do so for educational purposes.
Meeting with CSBF/NASA took over this Monday(02/10). Notes will be posted on Google drive.
